Penn State raked inside the batter’s box during its 2025 campaign, setting new program records — most notably in home runs.

Despite this squad being one of the best at the plate in program history, the results didn't necessarily meet expectations. The Nittany Lions missed the Women’s College World Series, finishing 25- 27 and entering conference postseason play as the second-lowest seed where they eventually fell to Nebraska.

The blue and white were limited by their pitching at times, an issue they have already addressed in the offseason. Yet, Penn State equally prioritized the bats, giving it an opportunity to assemble one of the deepest lineups in the Big Ten.
